Photoelectronic Sensors

wenglor sensoric is your competent partner for photoelectronic sensors. Our diverse range of innovative products provide solutions for complex automation applications. Our photoelectronic sensors can detect or count objects without contact, measure distances with high accuracy and identify colors, brightness or luminescence.Various mounting systems allow for easy, flexible installation. Fiber optic cables that can be connected to sensors allow them to be used under extreme conditions or in tight spaces.

Ultrasonic Sensors

wenglor ultrasonic sensors are almost completely insensitive to interfering factors (such as extraneous light, dust, smoke, mist, vapor, lint, oily air, etc.). They are best suited for the detection of transparent and dark objects, reflective surfaces, shiny objects and of bulk materials and liquids. Ultrasonic sensors allow for the reliable detection and measurement of objects, independent of their material, color, transparency and texture.wenglor ultrasonic sensors are characterized by their ease of use and excellent technical properties.

They send pulsed ultrasonic waves of a certain frequency and determine the objects distance from the duration of the ultrasound that it reflects. The output switches if the specified switching point is reached. The measured value is output as a voltage value (0...10 V/4...20 mA) or in digital form (IO-Link).

2D/3D Sensors

The 2D and 3D sensors by the wenglor subsidiary wenglor MEL GmbH are designed for two- and three-dimensional object detection. The company based in Eching near Munich is mainly known for its expertise in the field of 2D/3D profile sensors and for more than 35 years of experience in the field of measurement electronics as a successful supplier of high-tech products. wenglor MEL GmbH has been part of wenglor sensoric as an independent brand since 2013.

About us

Company details

the innovative family.Blood is thicker than water and wenglor is a lot more than just a family company, because were united by a common genetic code: the passion to invent. This is what keeps us together, and its the reason we dont just talk about family, but actually live it as well – every day.

Our Universe: from Tettnang to the Whole WorldWere proud of our Southern German roots – without neglecting to fulfill the needs of world markets. Continuous growth in nearly all areas of business – from traineeships right on up to R&D and sales – offers impressive proof of our innovative ability.Our Mission: Assuming ResponsibilityFor us, however, accelerating growth is not associated solely with rising sales figures, but rather with ever mounting responsibility as well. And wenglor not only assumes conscientious responsibility for its employees, the company takes a responsible approach to environmental issues as well. For example, alone thanks to the use of thermal insulation and geothermal energy for buildings at the Tettnang location, CO2 emissions are reduced drastically by more than 300 tons per year.

Our Passion: We Yearn for Innovation30 years ago, we started developing and marketing individual market solutions in the field of sensor technology in the Southern German town of Tettnang. In the meantime, weve established ourselves as a constant with international standing amongst system and standard suppliers. Regardless of whether individualized oneoff production or large volume shipments are involved: today as in the past, our entrepreneurial pursuits are above all exemplified by demanding quality standards. Thats what makes our products so unique. 55,000 satisfied customers on nearly every continent in the world make it very clear: wenglor products are more in demand than ever.Our Claim: We Live by a Family PhilosophyFabian and Rafael Baur have been running the family business in its second generation since 2010. But the Innovative Family doesnt include just the Baurs. All of the companys employees are part of the clan, and we identify very strongly with wenglor. We will continue our success story, full of change and growth, in the future as well. And it will continue to be decisively shaped by our characteristic brand name values: “innovative”, “international” and “family operated”.
